Revengeance Now Available To Buy On Steam In Ireland

As a quick update to this report on the region availability of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance on Steam, it seems Konami have now made it so that Irish gamers will be able to buy the PC version of Revengeance.

Previously, when attempting to buy Revengeance from Steam, if you were accessing Steam from an Irish ip address, you would have been greeted with this message:

This decision does not extend to other regions, with Japan and many other Asian countries still unable to buy it from Steam. Also of note, the region locking of serials from other distributors is still in place, and as is the cross-region gifting block, but this is great news for customers residing in The Republic.

Pretty sure this justifies my claim that blocking it in Ireland was just an honest (if stupid) mistake. Glad to see it fixed. I’d been refreshing steamdb.info a couple of times a day since I expected this.

Doesn’t justify continuing to block it in all those other countries though.
